How do I open another app programmatically in Android? - java

What I want to do is simple, but I don't know if it's possible. I want my app to open a specific area of another app. This specific area of the other app is a form; my app contains information to complete this form. I want my app to open this form with the information in the editable text boxes. Does anyone know if that is possible?
The other app I'm trying to open is a bitcoin client open source.
Code: https://github.com/schildbach/bitcoin-wallet/
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.schildbach.wallet
If you open this app (the bitcoin client) and click on "Send Bitcoins", the form I'm trying to open will appear. There are 3 editable text boxes there and I have the information to fill then in my app.
That's it guys, hope someone knows.
PS: I successfully opened the app using:
Intent LaunchIntent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("de.schildbach.wallet");
startActivity(LaunchIntent);
But I didn't opened the form, so it was useless.

How can Take permission using an alert Box at just destroy the application in Android

I just want to show an alert box at just killing the application in android.
It's like a Notepad application, if we simply kill the app (on clicking the close button) then we get an alert box asking for save changes.
I just want to add same thing in my application.I have tried onBackPressed() and its working fine on clicking on Back Button. But I need same thing on closing the application.
There is now way to be sure if the app is being closed but you can place a check if the application is in foreground or not which is a better metric IMHO as this tells you when the user moved away from your application.
To check the ProcessLifeCycleOwner this will help you find state of process. You can check this Github sample or this stackoverflow question in how to use it.

Filling out and Saving a PDF on android

so basically what I am attempting to do, is to create a PDF that information can be inputted by the user of that document. and when all the information is entered, be able to click the save button below on the PDF document, and a window prompt open allowing the user to "save as" the document to a certain directory.
I currently have the button working for Windows OS, and the prompt comes up to save as, however when opened on Adobe reader on an android phone and the save button is clicked, nothing happens.. is there a java script code that differs from the Windows version to what android would look like.
If you would consider Xamarin for android app development then you could take a look at the following blog post showing how to create PDF file with arbitrary content on Android and iOS using the same library.

Use blackberry camera in java app to select a photo that was already on file

I know you can use
Invoke.invokeApplication(Invoke.APP_TYPE_CAMERA, null);
to get the blackberry camera application to be shown and allow the user to take photos. From which you can use a FileJournalListener to find any created files.
(As shown/implied in this forum post: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Java-Development/How-to-use-FileJournalListener/td-p/295424)
There are times however, when the user chooses not to take a photo but selects one from the file system. Since this wasn't created at the time I opened it, using the FileJournalListener is not going to meet my needs.
What should I use to get the selected file?
EDIT: The functionality I'm trying to produce I've seen in the Twitter for blackberry application
I think you should create a file picker first,
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/developers/deliverables/11958/Create_a_file_picker_856986_11.jsp
After that in the application, user could select whether to capture new picture or browse from their storage.
If user select the later, open up this file picker and for every images found user can view the image, and the application can save the path where the images located for further processing.
